Wolfgang Petersen, 75 -- March 14, 2016

Happy 75th birthday to German director Wolfgang Petersen, who was born on 14-March-1941.

I remember when Das Boot came to America. We went to see it at the Bridge Theater on Geary. I enjoyed it, but I remember controversy about the way the crew behaved and what some perceived as glorification of the German war.
